Re: Problem with MANIFEST_RESOURCE_ID RT_MANIFEST

I've managed to narrow the
problem to the program resource file winMd5Sum.rc. It has a line for

which commented out makes the program run ok. Also without changing
that line but disabling the embed manifest in the project options
makes it work too.
I can't understand why?. The original program hasn't got a separate
manifest file so i guess it's embedded?
There are two ways to provide a manifest for an application: write one
by hand and manually embed it as a resource (which is what that line in
..rc file is doing), or let the linker generate and embed one
automatically. Your problem happens when you try using both approaches
at once. Just pick one, and stick with it.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
